  1. Nice work--and being a celiac involves some work, it's kind of like a job to avoid all of that gluten that is out there!
  2. This article might be helpful. It breaks down each type of test, and what a positive results means in terms of the probability that you might have celiac disease. One test that always needs to be done is the IgA Levels/Deficiency Test (often called "Total IGA") because some people are naturally IGA deficient, and if this is the case, then certain blood tests...
  3. Geisslers Supermarket Inc. of East Windsor CT has issued a recall of all Sushi products produced by EZnoble Sushi for Geisslers Supermarket Inc. produced or purchased on 3/26/2024, and 3/27/2024, with a sell by date of 3/27/2024, and 3/28/2024. They may contain undeclared egg, wheat and milk. Customers with an allergy or severe sensitivity to egg, wheat,...
  4. I'm glad the site has helped you, hopefully you found these interesting articles from a veterinarian: https://www.celiac.com/profile/102790-john-b-symes-dvm/ I'm not sure if they test for the most recent markers that have been found to be associated with celiac disease. The number of genes associated with celiac disease is more than two, but...
  5. Thanks for the tips! It's nice to see more restaurants that really get it.
  6. Many people with celiac disease, especially those who are in the 0-2 year range of their recovery, have additional food intolerance issues which could be temporary. To figure this out you may need to keep a food diary and do an elimination diet over a few months. Some common food intolerance issues are dairy/casein, eggs, corn, oats, and soy. The...
  7. It's hard to say if it was just coincidence, and you may have a bug, or that your symptoms may be getting worse when you eat gluten. In those with celiac disease or gluten sensitivity there is often a progression of worsening symptoms, although some people have few if any noticeable symptoms. Here is more info about how to do a gluten challenge for...
  8. We have some from Japan that work well, but they are older. I just found this: https://www.seriouseats.com/best-food-thermoses-5193419
  9. We use Better Than Bouillon Organic Roasted Chicken Base to make the broth, which we get a Costco. We then use Lotus Foods Organic Rice Ramen, Millet & Brown Rice from Costco as well, and add various veggies, chicken, etc. and it comes out perfectly: https://www.amazon.com/Better-Than-Bouillon-Organic-Roasted/dp/B079L5DX1N/ https://www.amazon...
  10. Nice job! Did you get a blood panel or a follow up endoscopy? I'm just curious what doctors are doing now for follow up care.
  11. If you have DH you will likely also want to avoid iodine, which is common in seafoods and dairy products, as it can exacerbate symptoms in some people. This article may also be helpful:
  12. What exactly is misleading about the article? It breaks down different brands in two groups: 1) labelled "gluten-free"; and 2) naturally gluten-free with wheat no included as a possible allergen. Readers are free to make their own choice based on their level of comfort. For myself, I've been eating Rosarita refried beans from Costco several time per...
  13. Your first blood test was positive, and not "borderline." Your biopsy results were indicative of early celiac disease, thus also positive. It looks like you indeed may have celiac disease, especially if your symptoms go away on a gluten-free diet. I have no idea why your doctor is avoiding the proper diagnosis here. This article might be helpful...
  14. Hi @saindonmona, do you have celiac disease, and did you get gluten somehow?
  15. You mentioned that you don't have additional food intolerance issues, how did you determine this? Many people with celiac disease, especially those who are in the 0-2 year range of their recovery, have additional food intolerance issues which could be temporary. To figure this out you may need to keep a food diary and do an elimination diet over a few months...
  16. We've done some articles on this topic in the past, and it's too bad dentists here seem fairly clueless about this aspect of celiac disease:
  17. A French translation card is included in the article I shared.
  18. If you self diagnose this way and go on a gluten-free diet and it relieves your symptoms it might reveal non-celiac gluten sensitivity, but as @trents mentioned, to get a formal diagnoses of celiac disease it would mean a blood panel which is typically followed up with an endoscopy if the blood tests are positive.
  19. Also, I've not heard of any legitimate allergy tests which use hair samples, certainly there is no test for celiac disease which uses a hair sample. Are you sure your tests are legitimate?
  20. Welcome to the forum @fine one. You can join this Zoom event that you commented on, and also join us in the forum: https://www.celiac.com/forums/
  21. Hopefully you saw this article...have a great trip!
  22. My mother who also has celiac disease suffered with TMJ for many years before her diagnosis, but her situation did slowly improve after going gluten-free, but it took a decade or so for most of her TMJ symptoms to go away.
  23. I'm sorry to hear about what you're going through. It must be really frustrating and uncomfortable. Have you talked to your healthcare provider about these sudden sweating episodes? It might be helpful to discuss this with them to rule out any other underlying issues or to see if there are specific strategies or treatments that can help manage this symptom...
  24. I am not sure where you are going, but we have articles in this section which may be helpful: https://www.celiac.com/celiac-disease/gluten-free-travel/
  25. We offer a ton of recipes here: https://www.celiac.com/celiac-disease/gluten-free-recipes/ and have done some articles on fast food places, but keep in mind that eating out is a common source of gluten contamination: https://www.celiac.com/search/?q=fast food&quick=1&type=cms_records2 Many colleges now offer allergen-friendly,...
